Following my recent posts where I showed how PowerCLI could be used to give you an idea of your vRAM licenses in vSphere 5.0 I wanted to let you know that an official tool has now been released from VMware.
This was first blogged by Yellow-Bricks and vSphere-Land, some of the key things to note about this tool which is different to my tool:
- Official VMware Support
- Support for vSphere/VI 3.5/4/5
- Log into single or multiple vCenters
- More vCenters can be added after the tool is opened
- Detailed Virtual Machine inventory for each license type
- Filter per license type
To make it easier for people, I have shot a quick video showing you how to download and use the tool
Install & How to use
Download the official tool
The official tool can be downloaded from here.
